"... Increasing in cooking time of bean grains during storage is a feature of this legume. However, its long cooking process consequently makes many consumers often avoid eating this product, which results postharvest losses. The possibility of offering a product previously processed is an option for con ..."

for consumers who look for convenience and quality. One way to reuse the grains that already present hardening defect is the application of processes, such as soaking in sodium salts to reduce the cooking time. The objective of this study was to verify the effect of the pre-processing of the aged carioca beans
EVALUATION OF NUTRITIONAL QUALITY
, 2008
"... Groundnut is the most important legume in Ghana. The crop is grown in all the agro-ecologies in the country; from the dry savannah regions to the moist forest areas. Several food preparations incorporate groundnut to improve the protein level, taste and flavour. Despite the importance of the crop, t ..."

, the chemical compositions of the varieties grown by farmers have not been analyzed according to their nutritional quality. Oil, fatty acids, protein, oleic/linoleic (O/L) acid ratio, iodine value and free soluble sugars were studied in 20 groundnut varieties grown in Ghana to determine their nutritional

The total glucosinolates (GSLs) content was not affected by salinity in Parthenon while it decreased significantly in Naxos as a consequence of the decrease in the indole GSL. However
Nutritional quality of organic and conventional wheat*

Producer Nutritional Quality Controls Ecosystem Trophic Structure
, 2009
"... Trophic structure, or the distribution of biomass among producers and consumers, determines key ecosystem values, such as the abundance of infectious, harvestable or conservation target species, and the storage and cycling of carbon and nutrients. There has been much debate on what controls ecosyste ..."

ecosystem trophic structure, yet the answer is still elusive. Here we show that the nutritional quality of primary producers controls the trophic structure of ecosystems. By increasing the efficiency of trophic transfer, higher producer nutritional quality results in steeper ecosystem trophic structure
Low nutritive quality as defense against herbivores

"... Contrary to a widespread assumption in the literature on plant-herbivore interactions, individual plants do not necessarily benefit by possessing traits which lower herbivore fitness. In particular, genes conferring lowered nutritive quality could even increase herbivore damage under certain circums ..."
